Dippin' Dots, the ice cream of the future? You better believe it.
My first week of school went well. It can be overwhelming at times, but I've stayed afloat. My class is great, too.

I wasn't able to last more than two days into the school year before getting sick. =/ I started sneezing and having cold flashes on Wednesday, it was even more of the same on Thursday, and although I got by the school day by being drugged on up Tylenol, last night I felt miserable. Laura came over and watched Heroes as I mostly slept and moaned in misery. I woke up this morning feeling better. I'm not healthy yet, but I am healthier than I was yesterday.

Speaking of waking up this morning:
* I woke up at 6:05, looked at my clock, and felt incredible that it was a weekend. Then I went back to sleep.
* I woke up again around 8, rolled over and went online. There were some news articles about how Congress sent a bill to Bush yesterday (that he's expected to sign), that will decrease the interest rate on student loans. Awesome! About two years ago, the Republican-controlled 109th Congress doubled the interest rates, but now Democrats are rolling them back. I kept reading. It turns out that the lower interest rates will only apply to new loans. Because I was in that two-year window when I accumulated my loans (about $35K) at the higher interest rate, I'm stuck with that rate. That was a downer. It's also another reason why I'll never vote Republican.

Seahawks tomorrow... whoo!
